Not as impressive as the buzz, INSIDIOUS is mostly innocuous. I love Rose Byrne and Patrick Wilson, but even their acting couldn't save this unfrightening horror film. And for me not to find it scary is saying something, since GREMLINS scares me to this day. The film veers too much into the realm of supernatural sci-fi fantasy and deals less with what we've come to expect from the modern horror. It's vastly more psychological than I expected, which isn't a bad thing, but how the filmmakers handle it is what brings it down. It felt contrived and dull; it lacked panache. I failed to believe any of it. For any horror fan, I couldn't recommend it.
